Wow, I really need to write more here... I am getting better at the whole facebook thing, but I tend to neglect the blog. I need to find out how to connect the blog to facebook so I can just update one of them...

I am getting ready for Manayunk right now. About 1 month to the show and I have to figure out what I want to build between now and then.

***The timer just let me know that I have 10 minutes left before I have to grade. ***

So, where was I? Oh yeah, Manayunk. Because my bots vary so much I have to make sure I have a variety when I go there. I also have to build new shelves. My dad found some cedar planks for me to build some found object shelves to replace my old display shelves. I am really excited about how they will look (and a little nervous). The goal is to have shelves that better reflect my work. Held together by old hinges, crutches for legs (fully adjustable for uneven ground too), and various other parts, I think they will be very interesting. The cedar is great because it is lightweight too.

***5 minutes left...***

I really need to hit the salvage yard and metal recycler to look for things to hold them together as well. I usually don't collect parts to do that kind of thing, but I am sure there is a lot out there. Anyway, I have to run. Hopefully I can update this more now that school is ending and I will have more time.
